Default Gawd I'm tired of winter!

First it was the wind storms that knocked down trees and loss of power to over a 1,000,000 people, then torrential rains, snow storms, deep freeze and now enough sand on the roads to qualify as a Dakar stage.... AAAAAGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!
If I don't throw my leg over the bike soon, I'm going to kill something!!!!!!

Drink a large quantity of beer! Trust me ... it'll help.
Here in sunny Queensland, it's bloody hot. So hot the trip home from work sucks. I think I'll start getting one of the other guys to hose me before I leave. I'll be dry by the time I get home anyway.
Funny...the beer remedy helps with Summer too! Hmmm.

Dave.

Hahahahah, that's funny. up here, they use salt not sand. Anyway, there were literally 6 inch piles at the intersections. I could feel the metal of the car crying saying, help, I'm rusting. hahahah.

It appears everyone from Queensland has something to say about the weather... In Bundaberg (Hope you US people have heard of the (FAMOUS BUNDABERG RUM), if I sleep in, then I take my car with its air conditioning to work so I don't die from heat exhaustion!

I'm contemplating putting my jacket in the fridge so it's cold when I put it on to head off to work. Stupid global warming!

Here in Texas, global warming isn't all it's cracked up to be. I don't thinkthat they know what they are talking about. The weatherman can't even tell me accurately what is going to happen next week, much less what's going to happen in the coming years!We normally get a couple of weeks of winter and then a bunch of great days for riding. Not this year. I'm sick of winter!!!!!
